Super Savings

Earn battle XP to unlock the deals below at a 50% discount. Each Super Savings vehicle offer is available to players who don’t yet own the tank. Each offer is available for 72 hours from the moment you unlock it in game. Don’t miss out!

  • American Tier IV MTLS-1G14 Light Tank
    • The only light thing about this tank is its class. The MTLS-1G14 brings some big DPM to its battles thanks to its ten-shot burst-fire autoloader. Add great depression values to the mix, and you have yourself a favorite-in-the-making not just for your lower tiered battles, but for your collection as well.
    • Earn 8,000 XP in battle to unlock the 50% Super Savings discount.

  • German Tier VI Dicker Max Tank Destroyer
    • Might as well call it Herr Feuerkraft (Mr. Firepower). This German vehicle gives you unbelievable alpha damage values (for its tier) along with one of the best gun depression values (15 degrees) you can find in a tank destroyer. Add it to your collection by meeting this week’s Super Savings’ requirement.
    • Earn 20,000 XP in battle to unlock the 50% Super Savings discount.

  • Soviet Tier VII Slayer SU-152 Tank Destroyer
    • First, your enemies will find the gun’s size funny. Then they’ll regret that as soon as you squeeze the trigger and deal 700/910 damage with a SINGLE shot. Keep it under cover and work together with your frontline brawlers to lower the enemy’s numbers swiftly. It’s got “Slayer” in the name for a reason.
    • Earn 40,000 XP in battle to unlock the 50% Super Savings discount.

And don’t forget about our Key Cards! Each Card provides you with a mix of Gold and additional in-game content (including possible Premium tanks!) that’ll give your battles a boost. See what the current drops are in this article.
